@nats Fair enough. Word of warning for next time though. I tried to play this but couldn't so I gave it low score. When it's released I will come back and change it but not everyone might. For next time, only publish your game when it's ready so that it doesn't get the harsh marks I'm sure it doesn't deserve!

Nice little game. Only real gripe I had with it were the controls. Found myself often looking at the keyboard to remember the controls. Otherwise, nice job. :)

It was very difficult to play this game for me with both keyboard and gamepad. But it still was fun and kept me playing. Good job!

sadly doesnt work for my keyboard, looks like a solid game though.
can you maybe add a WASD layout that is optional? would be a nice addition for all the european peoples i think :)

i like the idea behind this game and would definitely revisit it if some mechanics were tightened up.

it's really hard to control the character with an xbox controller for example. simply walking in a straight line is difficult, and he moves probably half as fast as i'd like him to. though i'll admit I appreciate a slower speed at times when you're trying to figure out how to beat a slime spreading throughout the room.

The idea of some guns having limited ammo is also quite nice for puzzle opportunities, but it's pretty hard to aim without a reticle or something. spoiling a shot sometimes means having to restart, so any accuracy indicator would be appreciated

The Controls were really messed up. and that made the game really difficult for me.
why not normal WASD? But QSDZ instead, thats really strange. Otherwise I liked it, if I was able to play it comfortably

Very nice and freakin difficult. Its a nice puzzle to solve. It took me quite a time to figuere out that I can use the slime to push the boxes. Maybe a little arrow to see where your shot will spawn would be nice because I found it quite dificult to aim sometimes.

Nice game. Was fun to play and I enjoyed the different weapon / slime types.
I started to notice some lag once there was a lot of slime in the level where you just run away from the slime.
It didn't make the game unplayable though and I still enjoyed it a lot.
Great job!

Great minds think alike, my game has slime as well that need to be avoided. Some cool mechanics and concept you have. Well done.

The music is nice and the graphics are pretty simple but they make job. The levels are quite hot for some and at times, I managed to pass the protes even if they were closed.

Good job !!

Timings are really tight in some levels. Completed the game using a couple of exploits:
